Debate About The Pearl Video Online
from the the-next-age-of-journalism dept
I didn't post anything about the debate last week concerning the FBI's attempt to suppress the online video of Daniel Pearl's murder. However, today, the Chicago Tribune has a very good article on the subject, where they argue that this is an example of how the web revolutionizes journalism. It's no longer a debate about whether a news organization decides to show the video - it's a question as to whether or not people decide to view it. Warning: I have not seen the video, nor do I intend to - but even the description alone in the article of the video is fairly gruesome.

When someone sez "no can watchie"
As for the Pearl video, I was not all that
impressed. I've seen for better and more
interesting snuff vids. Muslum extremeists need
to start spending more time a video editing camp
instead of military training camp.
What is interesitng is that his killers are known,
in custody and are going to get away with it.

Daniel Pearl
A few miles later, she asked if I read the journal often. We had a friendly little conversation (a little odd to speak to total strangers on the MUNI, but she seemed nice enough). A few blocks before she got out she pulled out childhood pictures of her with her brother --- Daniel Pearl.
